IPL 2026: GT vs KKR Playing 11, live toss and match time, streaming

The Gujarat Titans (GT) return to the Narendra Modi Stadium to face a struggling Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Match 25 of IPL 2026 tonight. KKR skipper Ajinkya Rahane has won the toss and elected to bat first.

 

After a shaky start with back-to-back defeats, the 2022 champions have bounced back strongly and now come into this contest on the back of two consecutive wins. Led by Shubman Gill, GT looked confident in their latest outing against Lucknow Super Giants, successfully chasing down a target of 165 with eight balls remaining. 

 

Gill and Jos Buttler played key roles with the bat, scoring 56 and 60 respectively, while Prasidh Krishna stood out with the ball, picking up 4 for 28 to earn Player of the Match honours.

 

 

In contrast, Kolkata Knight Riders have endured a difficult campaign so far. Still searching for their first win, they sit at the bottom of the points table after five matches. Their latest defeat came against Chennai Super Kings in Chennai, where they failed to chase down the target and fell short by 32 runs. Ajinkya Rahane’s side has managed just one point this season, which came from a rain-affected game against Punjab Kings at Eden Gardens.
